What is the talk around your family's dinner table? In many homes, the discussion these days centers around Israel and the future of the Jewish people. We worry about Iran. Many wonder, "What kind of world will our children live in?"
For kids listening in to the adult's conversation, the world seems bleak. What lays ahead for the young teenager to look forward to? How will this kind of talk influence his attitude towards his Jewish identity?
Try taking a business approach. Rule #1 of successful enterprises is optimism. It's going to be successful! We'll make it!! Not only does this encourage and inspire all the employees but it makes it happen.
The Jewish people is your business - let's have the right attitude as we prepare for a new year!
Rosh Hashanah is just around the corner, and it's time to get a life. Seriously. On Rosh Hashanah G‑d answers our prayers and inscribes us in the Book of Life for good health and a Sweet New Year. Prepare for this very special time of year, a time of reconnection and reJewvination. A year filled with faith and optimism. Come to Shul and get a life.
See you at shul on Shabbos.
Shabbat Shalom,
Rabbi Shalom M. Paltiel

How to Stop a Crying Baby
By: Rabbi Aron Moss
Sydney, Australia
I feel so hard done by. I hate feeling like this when I know I have many blessings to be grateful for, like a great family and wonderful children. But I find that no matter how hard I work, how hard I try, others have it so much easier than me - they get left inheritances, win prizes, travel the world and I just slog and slave to live a decent life, and still I struggle. I harbour such negativity it is unhealthy. How can I start feeling more grateful for my blessings and less resentful about my hardships?

 The New Year's Card
As weeks turned into months, it seemed that my relationship with Yetta was over. I was soon proven wrong. One day, I received an official envelope in the mail from the city hospital Yetta lived in. The letter was headed, "Dear Family Member of Yetta G."

the parshah in a nutshell |
 |
|
|
ParshatKi Tavo
Moses instructs the people of Israel: When you enter the land that G‑d is giving to you as your eternal heritage, and you settle it and cultivate it, bring the first-ripened fruits (bikkurim) of your orchard to the Holy Temple, and declare your gratitude for all that G‑d has done for you.
Our Parshah also includes the laws of the tithes given to the Levites and to the poor, and detailed instructions on how to proclaim the blessings and the curses on Mount Grizzim and Mount Ebal — as discussed in the beginning of the Parshah of Re'ei. Moses reminds the people that they are G‑d's chosen people, and that they, in turn, have chosen G‑d.
The latter part of Ki Tavo consists of the Tochachah ("Rebuke"). After listing the blessings with which G‑d will reward the people when they follow the laws of the Torah, Moses gives a long, harsh account of the bad things — illness, famine, poverty and exile — that shall befall them if they abandon G‑d's commandments.
Moses concludes by telling the people that only today, forty years after their birth as a people, have they attained "a heart to know, eyes to see, and ears to hear."
